News in Brief: French Jets Train. Flying British-built Vampire jets, French pilots take off for thrilling aerial maneuvers, part of their training for General Eisenhower's expanding NATO air arm. Shots of flame coming out of jet engine. Jet taxis. Jet flying just above ground level. Ground-to-air shot of many jets (32 of them, it looks like) flying overhead in formation. POV shot as if inside airplane as it goes partway through a roll. Air-to-air planes. Really nifty subjective POV shot from inside one cockpit, flying close behind another jet as it flies very close to the ground!
